Did fail to load interstitial for location "Default".

[onatbas]

Hello, i'm having difficulties using Chartboost, I've set up a publishing campaign from dashboard, i have my device as a test device, I've added an android application(which is on market, i've selected it from the list) and published.

In game, whenever i request an interstitial AirChartboost.getInstance().showInterstitial(); i get this>

[Chartboost] Should request interstitials in first session? Yes. [Chartboost] Should request interstitial for location "Default"? Yes. [Chartboost] Did fail to load interstitial for location "Default".

it appears i'm not having any connection problems.

How can i solve this?

Could be Chartboost not serving any ads to your device. Have you tried with other devices? Have you try setting your app in test mode in Charboost dashboard?

[onatbas]

Device is S 3 i dont think Chartboost wont be serving to that, and yes , i added the device as a test device.

I've tested on various devices, result is the same :/

I have the same issue with my Amazon Kindle Fire device. Probably this issue may relate to => Using Open GL by chance? Please be sure to set cb.setImpressionsUseActivities(true); (from https://help.chartboost.com/documentation/android).

Is there any way to extend ANE with setImpressionsUseActivities method? I think it worth to try. Thanks ahead!

I was having the same problem and found out that the reason I was getting that was because my app configuration was set to landscape. And the example setup looks to be asking for portrait ones. So doing : this.cb.setOrientation(CBOrientation.LANDSCAPE);

worked like a charm and solved my problem! Probably this will help lots of people cause their help page has nothing telling about that. :)

Hmm, indeed we use the application in landspace mode, is it possible for you to share fixzed version ?

In my solution I have a singleton AdsManager that controls the whole ad stuff. But what matters for me is that I use OpenGL in my game so i had to set the last line too. Just remember that if you set that line, you'll have to put some code on the AndroidManifest too.

getInstance().cb = Chartboost.sharedChartboost();
getInstance().cb.onCreate(AdsManager.getActivity(), CHARTBOOST_APPID, CHARTBOOST_APPSIGNATURE, getInstance().chartBoostDelegate);
getInstance().cb.setOrientation(CBOrientation.LANDSCAPE);
getInstance().cb.setImpressionsUseActivities(true);

Hope this helps!

Guys,has anyone come up with an answer already? By the way,thpramos,thanks for an advice.What exactly am i supposed to declare in Android Manifest?

[thpramos]

The following lines:

<activity android:name="com.chartboost.sdk.CBImpressionActivity"
    android:excludeFromRecents="true"
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>

Hope this helps.

Any news on this? I'm having the very same issue.

By the way, this is all the output I get:

[Chartboost] Should request interstitials in first session? Yes. [Chartboost] Should request interstitial for location "Default"? Yes. [Chartboost] Should display loading view for More Apps? Yes. [Chartboost] Should display interstitial for location "Default"? Yes.

There doesn't seem to be any errors, but it just won't work on Android. iOS works fine, though.

I had the same issue with my android OpenGL game Precopter.

Init chartboost like this:

cb.onCreate(this, appId, appSignature, chartBoostDelegate);
CBPreferences.getInstance().setOrientation(CBOrientation.LANDSCAPE);
CBPreferences.getInstance().setImpressionsUseActivities(true);

I have to call showInterstitial from the main thread (without this chartboost crashes):

activity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
        cb.showInterstitial();
    }
});

My app is a landscape app. On the chartboost dashboard first I set both orientations (landscape and portrait). After I set just landscape orientation on the dashboard and put following lines into the AndroidManifest.xml

<activity android:name="com.chartboost.sdk.CBImpressionActivity"
    android:excludeFromRecents="true"
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>

It worked like a charm. hope this helps!
